Our mission
Creating opportunities where barriers exist. Our mission is to unlock human potential, strengthen social ties and create new opportunities for people and communities.
We bring together people of different cultures, generations and professions and help them overcome social, language and economic barriers, gain new knowledge, build professional skills and carry out their own initiatives. Through education, enterprise, cultural exchange, social innovation and partnership, we work towards an open, inclusive and sustainable society in which everyone can receive support and also contribute to the common good.
Our vision. We see an Ireland where cultural diversity is a source of strength, everyone has opportunities to develop, and active communities take part in creating social and economic change. Fortuna Community aims to become a lasting platform for community initiatives, connecting people, business, educational institutions, community organisations and public bodies in projects with a long-term social effect.

Projects and social impact
From ideas to measurable change. We show projects as they are: running, pilot, application submitted, concept. We do not count an application as funding.
Partnership and funding: together we can do more
We invite funders, businesses, universities, local authorities and community organisations to work with us. You can support a project, offer expertise or space, take part in a pilot, or become a partner in a new programme. We name partners only with their permission, and we do not call an unsigned agreement a partnership.

How it began
The idea came from Nikolay Klinkov, who saw how much people need company and support. With co-founder Vitalii Shatskyi he began regular meetings in March 2025; the meetings grew into a community, and the community into projects.
